leaving the danger zone


We officially survived the first trimester! We heard Baby Amato's heartbeat today loud and clear. I was disappointed that I didn't get to see the baby today but that's a good sign that the ultrasound wasn't needed. Alas, I'll have to wait four more weeks to see him/her. I'll be happy to count the ten fingers and ten toes and make sure all the parts are in the right place! We will also get to find out the gender at that time but we really want to wait until s/he is born to know. How often do you get a surprise like that? We are really enjoying knowing that the scariest time period is behind us and will think positively about the future two-thirds!
